Mount Gambier tennis final

Melanie SouthI watched the final today of the Mount Gambier Blue Lake Women’s International tennis tournament between Natalie Grandin of South Africa and Melanie South from England.

Grandin won 7-6, 6-4.

I felt like gadget man, wired with a mini laptop, mobile phone, camera and video camera.

I tweeted live scores and these were picked up by at least one website in the United Kingdom.

Some of my photos are online here. I think they’re pretty good for a small $450 camera.

It was a great contest to watch, plenty of rallies and not too many unforced errors. The match lasted just under two hours.

Here’s a video of the last two points:
